*NOTE: deprecated endpoints are not included in the summary*

The RAMP client is intended to call the GET driven endpoints for dynamically
loading layers.  These functions are intended to be extensible and also allow
for the retrieval of generic configuration as well.

The data catalogue is intended to call the PUT, POST and DELETE endpoints for storing
data.  Currently registration will accept ESRI feature service endpoints and WMS
endpoints.
